To be fair the 1056 tuning didn't make him look like a prize twerp filling the place with black smoke.
No, it come last in the test iirc.

What was it up against?No, it come last in the test iirc.
Easy, apart from that hideous cab on it, its comfortable, has a good steering lock and a nice smooth and positive gear selection which doesnt require the driver to wrestle with a pair of 3ft long sticks connected by rubber bands to the gearbox
Oh, and it sounds nice as well
I will second thatHow about a fleet profile of contributor Darren Tebbits massey's? To my knowledge it's never been done. Although there has been several good articles on individual tractors.
I'm sure it would make a good read as they always seem well turned out.
What.
Ah that one. couldn't rememberFord 78, MF 3080 and JD 3350

Again i suppose it's a matter of what's available. The 7810 would have pulled a lot better if shod on 16.9 rears and matching fronts.Ford was shod on rediculous wheels iirc...13.6/38 and 12.4/24s with a 4ft weight tray stuck out the front,
IH had a huge holset turbo stuck on it....
fair test as always
They had to do it twice so the IH could win the second time around...
i proved my point, forgotten what the point was, but it was certainly proved
Really like the sound of that, good thinking
You could go 7600, 7610, 7740, TS100,T5060, T5.105.
Is it possible @rorsday
Do have farm yourselfEverything is possible if we can source the tractors, tidy examples, within the same area...
I bet it isn't easy to find truly comparable tractors without them being at opposite ends of the country.

John, of course, you have a lot of experience at trying to gather together four 20-year old same-size tractors from the same era in the same field...maybe you'd like to have a go sometime?

I always thought you seemed a decent bloke(Tin hat on id rather have the 1594 than the 7810)
We all have our faultsI always thought you seemed a decent bloke
